Famous quotes containing the words high, school, college and/or career:

    “His valors shown upon our crests today
    Have taught us how to cherish such high deeds
    Even in the bosom of our adversaries.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
    —Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    “I had a classmate who fitted for college by the lamps of a lighthouse, which was more light, we think, than the University afforded.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
